Are small, battery powered pencil sharpeners (like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-KP4A-BK ... B00006IEIF) allowed on test day?
I'm still stunned you can't use mechanical pencils. I haven't used wooden pencils since the third grade. Given how draconian the rules are, I wouldn't be surprised if certain pencil sharpeners were banned too.

Agreed on the wooden pencil bullshit. I couldn't even remember the last time I used wooden pencils.

Not 100%, but I'm pretty sure that your pencil sharpener has to be manual.

Yeah, Panasonic resorted to trolling TLS to sell more pencil sharpeners.fatduck wrote:obvious advertisement

As to the question, no not allowed since it is electric. Keep in mind that you are allowed to bring in as many #2 pencils that you can fit into a one gallon zip-lock bag with your other essentials.
